Renault ended 2025 with revenues up 3% to €57.9 billion, up 4.5% at constant exchange rates. In the red by EUR 10.9 billion was the net result as a result of the change in accounting for the shareholding in Nissan of EUR 9.3 billion, excluding which the profit would be EUR 715 million. EBITDA fell from €4.26 billion to €3.63 billion, from 7.6% to 6.3% of sales. A dividend of EUR 2.2 per share is expected. For 2026, Renault expects a gross operating margin of 5.5%, rising to 7% in the medium term, and 1 billion in cash generation from the automotive business.

"In a challenging market environment, our 2025 results demonstrate our teams' commitment to delivering consistent, world-class performance among automotive industry players. This performance reflects the solidity of our fundamentals and our agility. Above all, this success confirms the soundness and solidity of our product strategy as well as the strength of our brands, which are recognised by our customers.

Excluding the stake in Nissan, which generated a capital loss on the sale of shares, 694 million in impairment losses, 2.33 billion in negative contributions to associates and 9.31 billion in losses due to the change in accounting treatment, adjusted group profit was 715 million. In 2025 Renault generated cash of €1.5 billion, up from €2.88 billion a year earlier, including €300 million in dividends received from Increased Financial Services, active in sales financing. "Record-breaking" according to the group is the net financial position of the motor business at €7.4 billion as of 31 December 2025, higher than in 2024.

"In a difficult market environment, the 2025 results," said François Provost, CEO of Renault Group, "demonstrate the commitment of our teams to ensure consistent, first-rate performance among automotive industry players. This performance reflects the solidity of our fundamentals and our agility. Above all, this success confirms the goodness and solidity of our product strategy and the strength of our brands, which are recognised by our customers.

In a few weeks' time we will announce our strategy, which is aimed at growing our business and enhancing the resilience of our operating and financial model.
